Study’s have shown that palpating or simply “feeling” the spine are neither accurate nor valid when it comes to spinal motion.

Often time’s lower areas of the spine will become “locked” or stuck in a certain position. By using specific Structural Motion Radiographs we can pinpoint the exact location of these locks and apply the proper adjustment to correct them.

This technology takes the guesswork out of evaluating the spinal motion. In addition, we utilize specific x-ray filters and techniques to decrease radiation exposure levels over 80% compared to plain film.

The best part is the patient can very clearly see when the spinal motion returns to normal. You can see these changes too!

I highly recommend Dr. Melo. I had a lot of hip pain and there were times were the pain would be so bad my legs would lock into place. I was not able to move at all. I did some research and found Dr. Melo I was very pleased to find him. He took the time to show me what my problem areas where. Dr. Melo did his magic and after a few visit my hip problems have not occurred in over a year. Very happy to have found Dr. Melo!

Dr. Melo helped me in ways that I never knew a chiropractor could. I started seeing him after an accident that left me with severe, debilitating sciatic pain. After just one visit I had pain relief and after just a few weeks my sciatic pain was gone. During the course of my care, I also mentioned to Dr. Melo that I had been suffering from anxiety since I was a teenager and had tried the traditional medical treatments like prescriptions and counseling, and while I found some relief, I still suffered and didn’t want to spend the rest of my life on medication. Dr. Melo explained that chiropractic can treat conditions like anxiety and helped me reach my goal of being medication, generalized anxiety, AND panic attack free! Now that I am pregnant, I value his care even more. He is gentle and helps with the aches and pains as well lesser known pregnancy symptoms. I couldn’t be happier with the care I receive from Dr. Melo and can’t wait for him to adjust my newborn son!

Over the years, I’ve collected a number of injuries to my head, neck and back. I’ve been to various types of chiropractors and the adjustments were painful with no lasting results. Recently, I began experiencing this erratic, flickering eye movement (pretty scary when you’re driving and it comes out of nowhere!). Dr. Melo showed me how to stop the flickering and through a variety of methods has brought this condition to a halt, thank goodness!!! Dr. Melo is extremely passionate and TRULY knowledgeable about his vocation. I’ve yet to deal with a more enthusiastic or compassionate Doctor, in any field of medicine.
